Persona 4 Arena Heading to Europe This Year

Atlus and Zen United are partnering up to bring Persona 4 Arena to Europe later this year, ensuring the legion of European Persona fans will get to play and enjoy Atlus and Arc System Works' collaborative fighting project for the RPG series.

Featuring hand-drawn 2D artwork courtesy of the experts at Arc System Works, Persona 4 Arena combines stylish visuals with the storytelling and RPG progression that Atlus is famed for. “Atlus’s Persona series is one of gaming’s best-loved treasures. While Arc System Works’ artistry in the fighting world is second to none” said Geraint Evans, Director at Zen United. “A collaboration between these two, greatly-revered developers is a mouth-watering prospect for both RPG and fighting fans alike”.

Persona 4 Arena will be thrusting players back into the Midnight Channel for some deadly battles in the 'P-1 Grand Prix' programme, when it launches on August 2nd in Japan, August 7th in North America and sometime in 2012 in Europe. Check out the new screens below.
